Scream in a good way or bad way?
It sounds okay to me, and it could lead to a more intimate theatre musical being staged (with songs)?
Even though they've kept it quiet for two years, was Jim aware that it was in production? If so, did he not try pitching some of his (Batman) songs?
It sounds like they've recorded incidental/background music only, but they could open and close with a song?
I bet Jim wishes he could stage the Bat musical this way:
'They will battle it out on the streets of Gotham City - a huge 100ft by 60ft stage set built on the arena floor, complete with skyscrapers, Arkham Asylum for the criminally insane and Wayne Manor, home of Batman's alter-ego Bruce Wayne.
The Batmobile will roar around as helicopters fly above and the venue is filled with a city sound scape, including sirens, police radio messages and an epic new Batman soundtrack recorded at Abbey Road studios.
A 130ft wide HD video wall will provide a moving backdrop, with special effects to blend comic book images with real actors as the Dark Knight story is brought to life in what is being described as a unique fast moving, action packed show, full of stunts, illusions and pyrotechnics.
There are 45 performers, including a circus troupe, involving trapeze artistes, parkour free runners and acrobats'.
